Walk for Myeloma
Join us on Sunday 30 March for Myeloma Australia's My Greatest Walk.
This grassroots campaign is driven by communities impacted by myeloma. It is a cause that has touched our hearts with the passing of our former Principal, Mrs Maria Woods.
We are honoured to walk alongside our community to raise awareness for Myeloma. If students wish to support and attend, please fill out EdSmart forms which have already been sent.
Parents and carers are also welcome to attend; please register your attendance or donate directly with Myeloma Australia.
Thank you to our Grammar Helping Hands service leadership team for their ongoing support. We look forward to walking with our community at Brightwater Park.
Date: Sunday 30 March
Time: 7:45 am start
Location: Brightwater Park, Freshwater St Mountain Creek
Register: Studets register via EdSmart. Parents & carers register via Myeloma Australia
